Ukrainian Security Boss Admits Ukraine Shot Down MH-17, Planned Ethnic Genocide in Donbass

MOSCOW – Top ranking SBU (Ukrainian Security Service) agent in charge of the ATO operation through 2014 when the operation commenced, Vasily Prozorov, has just made some stunning statements to international media, and has recently escaped to Russia. Moreover, without exaggeration, this is a major blow to the foreign policy positions of Kiev. It is also a very weighty argument for those forces in Europe who want to quickly move the peace process in Ukraine from its present stalemate.

In speaking to journalists, Prozorov’s presentation can be summarized with these points: – Kiev from the very beginning did not plan to resolve the conflict in the south-east of Ukraine by peaceful means. – Kiev initially planned a large number of victims among the population of Donbass, then they wanted to declare them accomplices of terrorists. – In the area of ​​the ATO there are Ukrainian secret prisons (as he called them concentration camps). – The neo nazi Azov unit also had its secret prisons. This is not Russian propaganda, people were actually killed there. – Specialists from the USA and the UK prepared a division of the SBU (Department No. 5) who went to train in the US and abroad to organize terrorist attacks and sabotage in Donbass – The Ukrainian side was involved in the Boeing crash of the MH17 flight

The Ukrainian side was involved in the MH17 flight disaster over Donbass, a former officer of the Ukrainian security service SBU, Vasily Prozorov, told a news conference on Monday. “It is my personal opinion and it relies on certain information. The Ukrainian side is an accomplice to the Malaysian MH17 flight disaster,” he said. “The amazingly prompt reaction of the Ukrainian leadership was the first thing that made me feel suspicious. My unequivocal opinion was President Pyotr Poroshenko and his press-service had prior knowledge of the affair. Secondly, hostilities had been underway for several months by then, but the airspace over the area was not closed,” Prozorov said.

In particular he emphasized the invariable response to all of his attempts to find out the circumstances of the disaster, for instance, a conversation with General Staff officers. The usual reply was: “Don’t poke your nose into this business, if you don’t wish to have problems.” “Some information has leaked out in the end, though. On the basis of my own analysis I can speculate who was an accomplice in the crime and who was involved in concealing evidence. In my opinion, there were two men involved – the current deputy chief of the Ukrainian presidential staff Valery Kondratyuk and chief of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s intelligence directorate, Vasily Burba.”

A passenger liner Boeing-777 of the Malaysia Airlines (Flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur) disappeared from the radar screens over the east of Ukraine’s Donetsk Region on July 17, 2014. Its crash killed all 298 passengers and crew on board – citizens of ten countries. Although hostilities had been underway on the ground for quite some time by then Kiev failed to close the Donbass airspace to international passenger flights. Australia, Belgium, Malaysia, the Netherlands and Ukraine created a Joint Investigation Team. On May 24 last year it published an interim report to claim that the missile launcher which had fired the missile that downed the plane might have been brought from Russia’s 53rd air defense missile brigade.

Pentagon defends space force amid skepticism

The Associated Press COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — Sharpening his argument for a space force, the acting Pentagon chief on Tuesday called it a “low cost, low bureaucracy” way to stay ahead of China, Russia and other nations seeking to erase American military advantages in space.

The Pentagon and Congress have discussed for years the possibility of establishing a military service for space, but some key lawmakers remain skeptical of the need and wary of the cost. The debate enters a new phase this week with the Senate Armed Services Committee holding its first hearing Thursday on the administration’s proposal to phase in a space force over five years and establish a space war-fighting command this year.

Patrick Shanahan, whose own future as the acting secretary of defense may be tied to the success of his push for a space force, is trying to persuade lawmakers that it is urgently needed to preserve U.S. dominance in space. The proposal also is a favorite of U.S. President Donald Trump, who often touts the idea at political rallies and whose first defense secretary, Jim Mattis, was initially skeptical of the need for a separate military service for space.

Shanahan, a former Boeing executive who had been Mattis’ top deputy and took over for him on Jan. 1, has yet to be nominated as his replacement.

In a speech at a space symposium crowded with industry officials hungry for Pentagon business, Shanahan cast China and Russia as threats, suggesting the United States has little choice but to match their efforts to weaponized space.

He repeated an assertion made in January by the Defense Intelligence Agency that by next year the Chinese military is likely to field a ground-based laser system aimed at low-orbit sensors in space. He said the Chinese also are prepared to use cyberattacks against U.S. space systems, and he said Russia is doing the same.

“Because of their actions, space is no longer a sanctuary,” Shanahan said. “It is now a warfighting domain. This is not a future or theoretical threat. This is today’s threat.”

His speech kicked off what his staff has dubbed “space week” — a series of space-related events, including Shanahan’s Senate testimony Thursday with Gen. Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Shanahan also taped an interview Monday with Fox News from the Colorado Springs luxury resort that is hosting a week-long space symposium. While in Colorado Springs, Shanahan also met with Air Force Gen. John Hyten, the U.S. Strategic Command leader whose responsibilities include overseeing military space operations.

In addition to establishing a space force, initially setting up just a headquarters in 2020 at a cost of $72 million, the administration is proposing to reestablish the U.S. Space Command, which would manage all military space forces, much like Hyten’s Strategic Command manages all nuclear forces. The military had a space command for many years, but it was eliminated in 2002 when U.S. Northern Command was set up as a response to the 9/11 attacks.

Although many in Congress favor the administration’s proposal, doubts persist, particularly about the space force, which requires congressional approval and would be the first new military service since the Air Force was established in 1947.

“Is an entirely new and separate military branch needed?” Sen. Jack Reed, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee, asked last week.

KELLYANNE CONWAY, POLLSTER FOR GEORGE-

He was fascinated with polling, because polling was the touchstone to what people think. I remember telling John Kennedy that "I don't know" is a great answer that often gets ignored. He really enjoyed that part, "Let's not push people." We did one poll asking, "Would you rather be president of the country or president of your own company?" It wasn't even close, they wanted to be president of their own company, because they don't actually like politics, and it'd be less stressful and more lucrative. That fascinated him and definitely informed his editorial choices.

Apple Music Censors Songs about Tiananmen Square Massacre for Chinese Government

Watchdogs groups have accused Apple of censoring music that mentions the Tiananmen Square Massacre and democracy in China.

According to a report from the Hong Kong Free Press, Apple is censoring certain songs in China that mention the Tiananmen Square Massacre and democracy. In 1989, the Communist-led Chinese government killed and injured thousands of protesters that had occupied Tiananmen Square in Beijing for the purpose of bringing attention to basic human and press rights that were being violated in the country.

This week, Apple removed a song by Hong Kong artist Jacky Cheung that directly mentions that massacre. “The youth are angry, heaven and earth are weeping… How did our land become a sea of blood? How did the path home become a path of no return?” the lyrics to the song read. Other songs by Cheung are still available to stream in China.

Notable: Vancouver man faces new money laundering charge in college admissions scandal (Epoch)

Vancouver Man Faces New Money Laundering Charge in College Admissions Scandal

Vancouver businessman David Sidoo faces an additional charge of conspiracy to commit money laundering for his alleged role in a college admissions scandal in the United States. In a new indictment from the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts today, Sidoo is accused of wiring about $100,000 in January 2013 from an account in Canada to an account in California. The indictment says the money was in the name of college-prep company The Key, and meant to be in exchange for William (Rick) Singer’s facilitation of a SAT cheating scheme for Sidoo’s younger son. An assistant for Sidoo’s lawyer, Richard Schonfeld, said the attorney was declining comment on the new charge.

Sidoo, a 59-year-old former Canadian Football League player and well-known philanthropist, was previously charged with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud in connection with the scandal. He pleaded not guilty last month and was released by the federal court in Boston on a secured bond of $1.5 million and his travel was restricted to Canada and the United States. An indictment released March 12 alleged Sidoo paid $200,000 in total for someone to take an entrance exam on behalf of both his sons, and that he also paid an undisclosed amount for someone to fly to Vancouver and take a high school test. St. George’s School says a review of its records from 2012 indicates no school or provincial exams were written at the school by the student in question on or around the date referenced by the indictment.

At least nine athletic coaches and 33 parents, including Hollywood actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, are among those who have been charged in an investigation dubbed Operation Varsity Blues. No students were charged. Authorities have said that in many cases the teenagers were not aware of what was going on.

Sidoo, known for his philanthropic causes in British Columbia, was CEO of Advantage Lithium and is a former Canadian Football League player for the B.C. Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders. Advantage Lithium said on March 14 that Sidoo has taken a leave of absence from his executive role as company president and that his responsibilities as CEO have been assumed by another executive on an interim basis.

An indictment alleges Sidoo paid $100,000 in 2011 to have an individual secretly take the Scholastic Assessment Test, or SAT, in place of his older son. It also asserts that Sidoo emailed copies of his son’s driver’s licence and student card for the purpose of creating a falsified identification card for the individual. The individual, whose name is redacted, flew from Tampa, Fla., to Vancouver to take the SAT on behalf of Sidoo’s son, the indictment alleges. The indictment says the test score was emailed to an administrator at Chapman University, a private California university, where Sidoo’s son was admitted and later enrolled. The indictment also alleges Sidoo agreed to pay another $100,000 in 2012 for someone to take the SAT in place of his younger son. It claims that in 2013 and 2014 the falsified SAT scores obtained on behalf of his younger son were sent to universities, including Yale and Georgetown, as part of his college applications. The score was also sent to the University of California-Berkeley, where the younger son was accepted and later enrolled, it says. Sidoo’s legal team has said the two sons have not been accused of any impropriety.

Notable: Michael Scheuer on Trump and America's enemies (as he sees them)

So, here's the latest from former CIA station chief for Afghanistan (and patriot) Michael Scheuer on Trump and America's enemies (as he sees them)

(snip)

I have no definitive answer, but I do have a speculation. The blazing hatred for Trump from Nadler, Schiff, Bloomberg, Wasserman-Schultz, Kristol, Durbin, Finestein, and so many other leading Jewish-Americans in politics, the media, the academy, and Hollywood could well mean that these creatures believe Trump will ultimately stop his slow application of an America First foreign and military policy by lethally turning on his, America First’s, and the republic’s greatest domestic enemies, of which there are five main groupings.

The first four are (a) the mid- and senior-levels of the federal bureaucracy, (b) the Democratic Party, (c) the academy, and (d) almost all of the media. The federal bureaucracy is already being culled of its richly verminous manpower – note the panic of Brennan, et. al — and the pace of that delightful process seems ready to pick up considerably. The Democratic Party is being destroyed by its socialist majority, and before long many dozens of its leaders will be facing the splendid pain inherent in the coming return of equal treatment under the law. No longer immune from the law that applies to all other Americans, these Democratic grandees will be humiliated, incarcerated, and forever vilified. The academy, too, will soon be imploding as a consequence of the 1st Amendment being restored to campuses. The academy’s hoard of two-bit, badly educated professors will confront the end of their courses on righteous feminism, anti-American U.S. history, gender studies, statue destruction, Antifa-sanctifying, the glories of sexual deviance, pedophilia, multiculturalism, and diversity, and a host of other useless topics once classrooms are again open to students who know these subjects are worthless and can be debated into oblivion by a bit of commonsense and the 1st Amendment’s ironclad protections. Not much needs to be said about the media. These Bloomsbury-like, faux intellectuals and sexually-uncertain weaklings have destroyed their own credibility, and will, if there is any justice, drown in the stinking cesspool they created and call home, all the while shrieking about Russian interference.

The republic’s fifth lethal enemy, unsurprisingly, is much of the country’s Jewish-American community and the state of Israel. It seems ridiculous to have to try to persuade Americans of this reality, especially after they have seen the Congress vote near unanimously to try to remove 1st Amendment protections from a sitting, though reprehensible and dumb as a rock, congresswoman, and, again, near unanimously vote to give $38 billion to Israel. This rare unanimity comes at a time when the Congress cannot muster enough votes to fund relief for 16 million malnourished American children, for preventing infanticide, for restoring U.S. sovereignty, for stopping the inflow across open borders of fentanyl, heroin, pedophiles, MS-13 gangsters, women for forced prostitution, criminals, and young children for the pleasure of pedophiles.

Why would the 1st Amendment be mangled and $38 billion given to Israel by massive congressional majorities, while solutions for America’s most serious and pressing problems cannot be passed? The answer: Jewish-Americans own the U.S. Congress and command majorities in both houses whenever they demand them. Their motto is “Everything for Israel, let Americans be killed, raped, starved, and addicted”.

But, if my hunch is correct, President Trump knows the depth, breadth, and power of these corrupting Jewish-American Israel Firsters. He surely also knows the enormous range of anti-American espionage operations – from suborning U.S. citizens to spy for Israel, to the theft of our intellectual property and technology – conducted by Israel’s intelligence services, with help from Israel-First U.S. citizens and some federal servants at all levels. If you will recall, when the fake FBI-DOJ Russian investigation began to unravel, the media reported that members of Israel’s diplomatic and intelligence services were involved in anti-Trump operations with the British, Australian, and Italian services. The reported Israeli role in the attempted coup has long-since disappeared from the media and, as far as I could find, the White House has never mentioned it.

Mexico Arrests Leading Los Zetas Cartel Figure in Drug Raid

CIUDAD VICTORIA, Tamaulipas – Mexican authorities this week arrested one of the top leaders with the “Old School” faction of Los Zetas Cartel. The man spent some time in Texas and is linked to much of the ongoing violence in this city and other parts of the northern border state. Mexican federal authorities in the western coastal state of Jalisco arrested Jose Roberto “La Barbie” Stolberg Becerra during a drug house raid. Stolberg is wanted in Tamaulipas on kidnapping and organized crime charges in connection with numerous disappearances, extortion, and murders tied to his cartel’s play for control of the region. His sister is married to the son of former Tamaulipas Governor Egidio Torre Cantu.

Authorities with Mexico’s Office of the Attorney General say they raided the house as part of a drug distribution investigation in Tlajomulco, Jalisco. Officials reportedly seized baggies with marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamine. Once in custody, police were able to identify Stolberg and link him with warrants from Tamaulipas. He will be transferred to face charges in the northern border state. Stolberg, aka “Bravo 7,” is classified as a “narco-junior” — someone from an upper-middle-class family who joined the drug trade for adventure, as opposed to economic need. According to top law enforcement sources, Stolberg fell into organized crime in the mid-2000s when Los Zetas were still part of the Gulf Cartel and Ciudad Victoria was controlled by the now-jailed kingpin Rogelio “El Rojo” Diaz Cuellar.

After the cartels split in early 2011, Stolberg sided with Los Zetas and began carrying out ransom kidnappings and extorted local businesses. By 2014, Los Zetas splintered into two factions, one led by Miguel Angel “Z-40” Trevino Morales called Cartel Del Noreste (CDN) — at war with “Vieja Escuela Z.” The “Old School Z” formed when the late Luis “El Rex” Reyes Enriquez convinced other Zetas that Trevino betrayed the greater cartel’s values to take power for himself. Soon after, the Gulf Cartel sided with Vieja Escuela Z and began targeting the CDN. Vieja Escuela Z and the Gulf Cartel created “Grupo Bravo,” a strike team that began targeting CDN members for gruesome executions. Grupo Bravo was led by Javier “El Shaggy or Bravo 1” Morales Valencia, who was killed in Nuevo Leon in 2016. Stolberg was a close ally of Morales and Daniel “El Arqui or Joker” Lara Salazar, along with Juan Pablo “El Oaxaco” Perez Garcia and associates. The group is responsible for more than 200 murders in Ciudad Victoria alone.

After the leaders of Grupo Bravo were either captured or killed, Stolberg fled to Weslaco, Texas. The cartel boss regularly moved between Weslaco and Ciudad Victoria until late 2017 or early 2018, when he returned to performing kidnappings and extortion schemes in the border state capital. Mexico’s National Security Commission says authorities received information in 2017 about Stolberg attending a wedding at a ranch in the central state of Guanajuato. There, his sister married Egidio Torre Jr., the son of former Tamaulipas Governor Egidio Torre Cantu. An arrest operation was canceled at the last minute due to pressure from the Guanajuato state government.

Twitter and Facebook Deny ‘Shadowbanning’ in Senate Hearing

Representatives from both Twitter and Facebook denied engaging in “shadowbanning” in response to a question from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) today, although Twitter’s representative went on to describe practices that mirrors the covert censorship almost exactly.

“Does Twitter or Facebook engage in shadowbans?” asked Sen. Cruz, during today’s Senate judiciary committee hearing on technological censorship. Turning to Twitter’s representative, Sen. Cruz said “you testified before, or you acknowledged that Twitter will downgrade a comment to make it less visible. Does Twitter notify a person if their comment has been downgraded?”

“If we have signals indicating that a person is being a spammy, meaning they are using multiple accounts to do the same, if they are doing automated activity but we’re not 100 percent sure that they are breaking our rules, if they’re abusive then what we will do is make it harder for that content to be found in a couple of different places – one is in search results, and the other is in conversations — the replies.”

Twitter’s spokesman would not reply on whether the platform notifies users when their comments are downgraded, instead promising to get back to Sen. Cruz on the topic. “I believe the answer is ‘no’, and if the answer is ‘no, that, as far as I can tell, is all but indistinguishable from shadowbanning” said Sen. Cruz. “At no point, sir, is a person’s followers unable to find what that person has tweeted,” said the Twitter spokesman. “But if it’s downgraded so far fewer people see it, that is exactly what is being alleged on shadowbanning” responded the Senator.

Last summer, an investigation by the left-wing magazine Vice found that Twitter shadowbanned prominent Republicans, including Rep. Matt Gaetz and GOP chairwoman Ronna McDaniel in search results. Undercover journalism by Project Veritas also exposed Twitter employees speaking candidly about shadowbanning users. Sen. Cruz seemed unconvinced that the Twitter spokesman’s description of his company’s policies did not amount to shadowbanning.

PARIS - French and Malian troops killed or captured more than 30 extremists and dismantled a jihadist training camp during a major counter-terrorism operation near Mali’s border with Burkina Faso, the French military told AFP on Friday.

The operation is the first since French forces set up a base south of the bend of the Niger River, building an advance position outside the town of Gossi in the heart of the restive Gourma region.

“Over 30 members of armed terrorist groups were neutralized,” the military said, a term meaning that they were killed or captured.

A French military doctor was also killed during the operation, the military previously reported.

The operation, lasting about 10 days, was launched in late March in Gourma, a crossroads region in Mali’s central belt that flanks the border with Burkina Faso.

The doctor was killed when his vehicle hit a mine, bringing to 24 the number of French defense force members killed in counterterrorism operations in the region since 2013.

Some 4,500 French troops are deployed in Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger and Chad in a mission codenamed Barkhane to help local forces try to flush out jihadi groups.

Only in Florida!

A QAnon conspiracy theorist is trying to scoop up a seat in Congress on a pro-hooker and pro-cocaine platform.

Republican bookseller Matthew Lusk is currently running unopposed in the GOP primary before facing Democrat Congressman Al Lawson in Florida’s 5th congressional district.

“Q is one of my issues because it’s definitely a leak from high places,” Lusk told state politics blog Florida Politics on Monday. “I follow Q, but I don’t know who or what Q is,”

The QAnon movement believes that a deep state of Hollywood celebrities and Democrats is working to undermine President Trump and is running an international pedophile ring, but Lusk insists he isn’t a “brainwashed cult member.”

On his website Lusk2020, the Macclenny man advocates for the legalization of prostitution — “hookers have hearts too” — and taking marijuana and hard narcotics “off the federal climes list.”

The Virginia-born man says he wants to take “the sword of truth to D.C. to decapitate the swamp monsters” of Washington, and despite his confusing pro-life, pro-drug, pro-reparation status, he thinks he can slay Lawson.

“I can’t imagine the globalist deep-state not putting up a challenger in the primary, I can’t wait to grind them into sawdust,” he told Florida Politics.

If no other candidate enters the Republican primary, Lusk will take on Lawson, who won the district with 64% of the vote in 2016.

I don't think this Q movement is about cocaine and hookers, WTF?

Thomas Massie And John Kerry Square Off Over Climate Testimony

Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie and former Secretary of State John Kerry squared off on Twitter on Wednesday after Massie criticized Kerry’s testimony in a climate change hearing. During the House Oversight Committee hearing, which took place Tuesday, Kerry appeared as an expert witness and took questions on the national security threat posed by climate change.

After a heated exchange, Massie took to Twitter to vent his frustrations. “Have you noticed that the scientists who feel most qualified to weigh in on climate science are political scientists?” he tweeted on Wednesday morning. Kerry responded by sharing a tweet from Rolling Stone that mocked Massie, along with his own comment, “It’s almost as if someone said ‘Congress has hit rock bottom’ and Massie replies with ‘hold my beer.'”

Massie fired right back. “It’s almost as if someone said ‘No one has less knowledge of science, a higher opinion of himself, and a bigger carbon footprint than Al Gore’ and Kerry replies ‘hold my champagne, I’m going to testify as a climate change expert,'” Massie tweeted.

Former Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel also testified at Tuesday’s hearing, arguing that climate change is a “threat multiplier” that can dramatically increase the inherent risk of things like natural disasters, military actions and even public health emergencies.

Italy’s Deputy Premier Salvini: “Turkey has nothing to do with Europe and will never enter EU on our watch”

Italy’s Deputy Premier, Interior Minister and League leader Matteo Salvini called for Turkey’s application to join the EU to be definitively rejected as he met with the heads of other European right-wing parties in Milan.

“Turkey is not in Europe and it never will be”, Salvini told a press conference at the gathering titled “Towards a Common Sense Europe, Peoples Rise Up”.

“The news is that we are expanding the [eurosceptic]family, we are working for a new European dream. Today for many citizens and for many people Europe represents a nightmare and not a dream”, said Salvini, speaking alongside Alternative for Germany (AfD) leader Joerg Methuen.

The Danish People’s Party and the Finns Party of Finland also attended the Italian event, titled ‘Towards a Common Sense Europe, Peoples Rise Up’.

France’s National Rally (RN) and Austria’s populist Freedom Party (FPO) confirmed they too plan to be part of the new grouping.

“We aim to win [EU Parliament elections] and change Europe… We are working for the future of our children”, Salvini told the conference, adding that the EU “makes sense if it recognizes identity and culture, rather than the nightmare if it were to look only towards business and finance”.

He also dismissed claims from globalist politicians and the media branding patriotic parties in Europe that wish to preserve their culture as dangerous extremists, telling reporters at the event: “The dangers are not in the past, as neither fascism nor communism will return.”

“Islamic extremism is the danger [now]”, he said, before stating that Turkey “will never enter [Europe] under our watch. Never”.

“The EU chooses to pursue sanctions against Hungary and Poland while giving billions [of euros]to Turkey. The path to accession should not be suspended, but instead definitively cancelled”, he added, stressing that the majority-Muslim country “has nothing to do with Europe”.

Trump to release peace plan after new coalition formed.

Aides to US President expect him to release his Israel-PA peace plan once Netanyahu forms a government coalition.

Aides to US President Donald Trump expect the president to release his peace plan for Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) once Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu forms a coalition, Reuters reported on Wednesday, a day after Netanyahu’s election victory.

Officials said that despite criticism of the administration’s moves to date, the plan will demand compromises from both sides.

The contents of the Middle East peace plan, authored by President Donald Trump’s advisers Jared Kushner and Jason Greenblatt, have remained a secret thus far.

Kushner and Greenblatt have limited the plan’s distribution over the two years they have been crafting it. It has been kept secret “to ensure people approach it with an open mind” when it is released, a senior administration official told Reuters.

Only four people have regular access - Kushner, Greenblatt, US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman and Kushner aide Avi Berkowitz, the official said.

Trump is briefed regularly on the contents but is not believed to have read the entire document of dozens of pages.

“He is briefed if something interesting is happening or there is an idea they want to run by him,” the official told Reuters.

While the plan has not yet been made public, Kushner recently discussed it in an interview with Sky News in Arabic.

While Kushner did not get into many specifics, he did say the plan “is very detailed and will focus on delineating the border and providing solutions to the main issues that are controversial and will be appropriate for the current situation on the ground.”

According to Reuters, the proposal also addresses such core political issues as the status of Jerusalem, and separately aims at helping the Palestinian Arabs strengthen their economy.

Cloaked in secrecy is whether the plan will propose outright the creation of a Palestinian state.

On Wednesday, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the plan would be presented before too long but, when asked, declined to say whether the administration favored a two-state solution.

On Tuesday, when asked about the two-state by a Senate subcommittee, Pompeo would only say, "Ultimately the Israelis and Palestinians will decide how to resolve this.”

The PA, meanwhile, has been boycotting the US ever since Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital in December of 2017 and has rejected the US peace plan before it has even been unveiled.

The issue is that for some search queries the word ‘People’ is linked to @NYTimes,” Twitter spokeswoman Katie Rosborough told The Daily Caller News Foundation. Users got a similar response when they typed “Fake News Media” into their cue, which directed people to the Media Matters’ account.

The glitch occurred on the same day a Twitter executive was answering questions from senators about the supposed political bias in the company’s algorithms. Carlos Monje Jr., Twitter’s director of public policy and philanthropy, evaded questions Wednesday during a Senate Judicial Committee hearing about whether the social media company is willing to subject itself to an independent audit. Conservatives say Twitter is targeting them because of their politics. Recent reports have only worked to exacerbate those concerns. The Silicon Valley company said in March that it “mistakenly remove[d]” a tweet from The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis about Lisa Page’s congressional hearing.

Tech experts have long believed Twitter and Facebook’s algorithms are not up to the task of effectively moderating social media platforms. Both companies tend to ding legitimate forms of conservative content when trying to remove objectionable material from their platforms, experts say. “If Facebook came out and was transparent, that would be one thing, but a lot of people are arrogant and don’t want to admit their algorithms are imperfect,” Emily Williams, a data scientist and founder of Whole Systems Enterprises, told TheDCNF in March, referring to reports suggesting that Facebook is deboosting conservative content.

Trump Signs Executive Orders To Fast-Track Oil And Gas Pipelines

President Donald Trump signed two executive orders to speed up oil and gas pipeline projects.

Trump seeks to curtail the ability of states, like New York and Washington, to kill vital energy projects.

New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo blocked gas pipeline projects, triggering an energy crunch in the northeast.

President Donald Trump signed a pair of executive orders aimed at speeding up oil and gas pipeline permitting, including limiting the ability of activists and states to block key energy projects. Trump signed the orders Wednesday at an International Union of Operating Engineers’ training center near Houston. Some labor unions have pushed back against Democrats’ anti-fossil fuel agenda, including the recently introduced Green New Deal. Trump ordered federal agencies to speed up permitting for pipeline projects, including asking the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to curtail state authority to block projects under the Clean Water Act (CWA). The administration is responding to criticisms that some states have weaponized CWA permitting to block energy projects.

For example, New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration has blocked a number of natural gas pipelines from running through his state, depriving the northeast of much needed energy supplies. The supply crunch hit hard during winter when the region was forced to import gas from Russia. New York City locals fear a moratorium on new gas hook-ups will stall commercial developments.

Across the country, Washington state, under Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee, a 2020 contender, has blocked coal and oil export terminals planned along the Pacific coast. The state’s actions relied on a wide-ranging permit review that included factors that had nothing to do with water quality. “President Trump is doing some spring cleaning on regulations used by no-growth advocates to stop infrastructure in its tracks and deny Americans the benefits our energy dominance promises,” Dan Kish, a distinguished senior fellow at the free market Institute for Energy Research, said in an email. “President [Barack] Obama lamented the lack of shovel-ready jobs; President Trump is going straight to the operating engineers who will build our infrastructure to show how he will clean out the stables and make America stronger,” Kish said.

However, Trump’s ability to curtail pipeline obstruction is rather limited without action from Congress. The order also directs the Transportation Department to update rules for shipping natural gas by rail. It also asked the Labor Department whether or not climate activist shareholder resolutions violate the fiduciary duty of retirement funds. Shareholders have approved resolutions at major companies, like ExxonMobil, to report on how global warming and climate regulations could impact future business operations. Likewise, some city and state pension systems have sought to divest themselves of fossil fuel assets over global warming concerns.

Environmentalists see shareholder resolutions and divestment as an effective way to keep fossil fuels in the ground in the absence of federal regulations. “I applaud the Trump administration for scrutinizing those who use and abuse the ‘socially responsible’ claim,” Steve Milloy told The Daily Caller News Foundation. Milloy, a former Trump transition team member, and former coal executive Fred Palmer founded the group Burn More Coal to challenge shareholder resolutions being pushed by climate activist investors. “In my view, socially responsible investing is an investor fraud,” said Milloy, who is also the publisher of JunkScience.com. Trump’s second order will clarify presidential authority for the approval of cross border pipeline permits, like the one he issued for the Keystone XL pipeline in 2017. Despite Trump’s approval of Keystone XL, the project has been further delayed by legal challenges. The Obama administration initially rejected Keystone XL over concerns it would tarnish the U.S.’s image as a leader in the fight against global warming.

Notable: Prominent Minnesota businessman, ex CEO, and wife found dead in apparent murder-suicide

Not sure if this is relevant to /qresearch/ yet but maybe. Posting for future reference.

A prominent Minnesota businessman [ Irwin Jacobs ] and his ailing, wheelchair-bound wife have been found dead inside their sprawling mansion in what a friend of the couple described as a murder-suicide.

Irwin fatally shot his wife before turning the gun on himself. He was 77 years old.

A friend of Jacobs, Dennis Mathisen, said he spoke with Irwin Jacobs about three days ago, and “he was upbeat. I talked with his son Mark yesterday, and he talked to both of them. He said Irwin seemed up.”"

Jacobs built his considerable wealth by buying, breaking up and selling failing companies for profit, earning him the moniker 'Irv the Liquidator' during the 1970s and 80s.

Over the years, he served as CEO of several large corporations, including the now-bankrupt US boat-building giant Genmar Holdings.

In the 1980s, Jacobs owned a minority share of the Minnesota Vikings, which he sold in 1991.

At the time of his death, Jacobs' portfolio included the household goods company JR Watkins Co, Jacobs Trading Co, and a host of other companies, among them multiple boat manufacturers.

I have no data, but it's striking the number of murder-suicides in the news lately. [ 374? ] = (187 x 2)

Some of them just seem a little odd.

Notable: I'm the boss! Trump gracefully reminds us of Stephen Miller's place (DCExaminer)

I'm the boss! Trump politely puts sudden media sensation Stephen Miller back in line

There’s only one person running immigration policy in this administration, and it’s not Stephen Miller, said President Trump Wednesday as he left for a rally in Texas. “You know who that is? It's me,” he said, in case anyone was not clear.

In recent days, Trump’s senior aide has been named repeatedly as the mastermind behind a tougher stance on migrants trying to cross the southern border and as the architect of an overhaul of senior personnel at the Department of Homeland Security. Kirstjen Nielsen was ousted as head of the department on Sunday, prompting a round of briefings that Miller — who co-wrote Trump’s “American carnage” inauguration speech — had long been gunning for her. It came days after Trump wrongfooted Homeland Security officials by withdrawing his nomination of Ron Vitiello to lead Immigration and Customs Enforcement, again reportedly at the urging of Miller.

Randolph Alles, the Secret Service director, and Claire Grady, the acting Homeland Security deputy secretary, have also both left, with reports of more departures to come. The result was a burgeoning narrative of a hidden puppetmaster leading a clean-out ahead of a major tightening of immigration policy. “Stephen is an excellent guy. He is a wonderful person. People don't know him,” said Trump when he was asked about his aide by reporters at the White House before going on to deliver a very public slap-down. “He has been with me from the beginning. He is a brilliant man … and frankly, there is only one person that is running it.” He pointed to his own head, in case anyone missed the point.

It is not the first time an adviser has been cut down to size after generating too many headlines. Former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, the other author of the inauguration speech, drew Trump's ire in 2017 after a string of stories about his genius for political strategy that included in a Time front cover headlined “The Great Manipulator.”

In recent months Miller, who served as communications director for then-Sen. Jeff Sessions before joining the Trump campaign, has been seen as the new Trump whisperer. Sam Nunberg, an early hire by the Trump 2016 campaign, said it was a mistake to ever take too much credit for policy or personnel decisions. He added that briefings emphasizing Miller’s role in the Homeland Security shake-up may be designed to undermine his position. “Miller is going to have to be careful and not take too much credit,” he said. “People saying that this was Miller, instead of that this was Trump’s decision, is a way to get Miller back.”

Notable: Fake News salty tears, crying over Barr using the term "spying"

Media unload on Barr over spying: 'Trump's toady,' 'prejudices the conversation,' 'highly questionable'

Attorney General William Barr's bombshell statement before Congress that there was "spying" on the 2016 Trump campaign triggered a ferocious media reaction. “I am going to be reviewing both the genesis and the conduct of intelligence activities directed at the Trump campaign during 2016. I think spying on a political campaign is a big deal,” Barr said during a hearing of the Senate Appropriations Committee on Wednesday.

That statement set off a media frenzy.

Tim O'Brien of Bloomberg compared Barr to Roy Cohn, the notorious chief counsel of Sen. Joseph McCarthy's hearings into suspected communists in the 1950s and later Donald Trump's personal lawyer. Cohn was "a ruthless and sleazy attack dog who taught Trump how to weaponize the legal system," and Barr was "trying" to be like him, O'Brien said. He took issue with the use of the word "spying" by Barr, though the attorney general made it clear that he had made no judgment on whether it was legal or not. “Spying is cloak-and-daggerish and, when it doesn’t involve foreign governments trying to game and surveil one another, it feels untoward. It’s your neighbor looking into your bedroom window, … it’s all sort of dirty,” he wrote, adding: "Saying you’re looking into spying prejudices the perspective and prejudices the conversation."

The Washington Post also joined the pile-on. Aaron Blake wrote in an analysis article that Barr's testimony was "highly questionable" and cited fired FBI Director James Comey and Jim Clapper, former director of national intelligence — both outspoken Trump critics. Blake wrote that Comey had characterized FBI scrutiny of the Trump campaign as “simply an information-gathering effort.” He added that when asked whether the FBI had spied on the Trump’s campaign, Clapper had responded: “No, they were not.”

Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post called via Twitter for Barr to be impeached. She then elaborated in an article headlined "William Barr, Trump toady" that Barr was using “the language of a PR spinner, not the attorney general of the United States.” She lamented Barr's use of the “spying” as a “loaded phrase and a political accusation.” She quoted approvingly the judgment of Laurence Tribe, an outspoken liberal and former adviser to Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, that "Barr has been gravely abusing the powers of his office."

Tokyo court orders Aum Shinrikyo cult successor Aleph to pay ¥1 billion to victims of sarin attack

(if you don't know about this read up on it-one strange dude)

A Tokyo court on Wednesday ordered Aleph, the main successor group of the Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult, to pay more than ¥1 billion in damages to the victims of the Tokyo subway sarin gas attack that shook the country in March 1995.

A series of terrorist attacks and other crimes committed by Aum Shinrikyo cultists, which left a total of 29 people dead and more than 6,000 injured, resulted in the indictment of 192 people.

Last July, Japan executed 13 former members of the cult who were held responsible for the 1995 sarin attack — an act of terror that killed 13 people and injured thousands more. The cultists’ group renamed itself to Aleph in 2000.

In July of that year the group apologized to the victims and agreed to pay some ¥900 million to them by 2005 through an administrator, as the group had declared bankruptcy.

Since then Aleph paid a certain amount to the victims’ supporters but withheld the payment of the demanded amount, claiming it had no assets to repay the debt.

Throughout negotiations in a Tokyo summary court, Aleph admitted to its outstanding debt but continued to delay the payments.

The negotiations continued for nearly six years but ended without progress.

The lawyers supporting the victims’ group then took the case to the Tokyo District Court demanding some ¥1.05 billion in compensation from Aleph.

In Wednesday’s ruling, presiding Judge Kazuhiko Tanaka ordered Aleph to pay the victims around ¥1.02 billion plus interest, taking into account the amount returned over the 19 years.

At a news conference held after the Tokyo court’s ruling Wednesday afternoon, attorneys representing the victims in the lawsuit said they were content with the court’s decision, saying the judges apparently recognized the plaintiffs’ claim.

The compensation money will be paid to 517 victims and surviving family members.

Mnuchin Says U.S. and China ‘Pretty Much’ Agreed on Enforcement

Treasury secretary indicates progress made on key sticking point

The U.S. and China have agreed to open “enforcement offices” as a way to make sure each side lives up to the terms of a trade deal still under negotiation, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said Wednesday.

“We’ve pretty much agreed on an enforcement mechanism,” Mnuchin said on CNBC. “We’ve agreed that both sides will establish enforcement offices that will deal with the ongoing matters. So this is something that both sides are taking very seriously.”

President Donald Trump has said the two sides are nearing a trade deal after recent high-level meetings in Beijing and Washington. Officials are discussing text of an agreement that would cover technology transfers, intellectual property protections, non-tariff measures, services, agriculture, trade balance and enforcement, according to China’s state-run Xinhua.

Drafts of the broader trade agreement now under discussion would give Beijing until 2025 to meet commitments such as allowing American companies to wholly own enterprises in China, people familiar with the talks said earlier. Those would be binding pledges that could trigger U.S. retaliation if unfulfilled, the people said.

The nine-month trade war between the world’s largest economies has disrupted supply chains, whipsawed markets and weighed on the world economy. The International Monetary Fund cut its outlook for global growth to the lowest since the financial crisis, while including a breakdown in U.S-China talks among possible risks.

Negotiators are still working out details and discussing when Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping could sit down to sign off on the agreement. Despite touting the idea of a “signing summit” at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida a month ago, Trump said last week there are no guarantees the two will meet.

At least four Republicans in that chamber have said publicly that they would either oppose or lean towards opposing the confirmation of the former Republican presidential candidate and business executive. Multiple Republicans told the Washington Examiner they would either vote or lean no on Cain, while few have expressed outright support for Moore. That indicates an extremely narrow path for the nominees. Neither is expected to win any support from Democrats.

The failure to confirm Cain, 73, and possibly Trump’s other pick, conservative economic analyst and activist Steve Moore, could stymie the president’s call for lower benchmark interest rates from the central bank. On Wednesday Trump told reporters that he wasn’t sure about Cain’s nomination, which the White House has not submitted to the Senate. “As to how he's doing in the process, that I don’t know,” Trump told reporters, per a White House transcript. “But Herman is a great guy, and I hope he does well.”

Sen. John Thune R-S.D., the chief Republican vote counter in the chamber, indicated that both Cain and conservative activist and economic analyst Steve Moore would face an uphill climb if the White House moves forward.

“I don’t know the answer to that but we have tried to indicate what some of the obstacles could potentially be based on feedback from some of our members,” said Senate Majority Whip John Thune R-S.D., the chief Republican vote counter in that chamber. “You know when they float names and ideas out there we get a pretty good sense quickly about what the chances of confirmation are for some of their nominees, so hopefully before they formally nominate them they’ll take that under consideration.” Trump caught Senate Republicans– and at least one of his anticipated nominees–off-guard with his announcements that he planned to nominate Cain and Moore. Neither nominee has been fully vetted by the administration yet, and the White House had not sought input from Republicans in the Senate whose votes Trump will need to advance the picks.

Sen. Mitt Romney R-Utah, a former financial executive and Republican presidential nominee when Cain also ran in 2012, briefly confirmed that he would not support Cain if the White House formally submits him. Sens. Lisa Murkowski R-Alaska, and Cory Gardner R-Colo., have also said that they plan to oppose Cain. At least one Republican Senate Banking Committee member, Sen. Kevin Cramer R-N.D., suggested he would likely oppose Cain. “I’m glad I don’t have to vote today,” said Cramer with regards to Cain. “I would be a lean no, that’s for certain.” Cramer spoke more favorably of Moore, and said that he didn’t think Moore’s disputes with the IRS and his ex-wife over reported delinquent payments related to a home sale and his divorce would necessarily disqualify him.

Other Republicans were quick to note that the White House had yet to formally nominate either Moore or Cain, and declined to say whether they would support either until the White House submitted their papers. Moore appears to have more fans in the Senate, thanks in large part to being plugged into conservative activist political circles in Washington. “I actually know Steve Moore pretty well and I think that his supply-side and pro-growth views would be a constructive addition to the discussion at the Fed,” said Sen. Pat Toomey R-Pa., a member of the Banking Committee and Moore’s successor as president of the conservative political organization the Club for Growth. “I don’t know enough about Herman Cain to have an opinion.”

Aside from vetting of personal issues, the pair’s views on the benchmark lending rate that the Fed sets will be a factor. Cramer, who sits on the Senate Banking Committee that considers Fed nominees, said he doesn’t necessarily agrees with Trump’s call for lower interest rates, which Moore and Cain has echoed. “I’m probably in the camp that thinks that the Fed raised rates too fast last year,” said Cramer. “That said, the Federal Reserve, as a board, they’re the experts. They have the access to all of the research and the experts.” But Cramer added: “I don’t think that an opinion one way or the other is going to disqualify a person, unless we’re just going to have robots do these jobs.”

Notable: PG&E: Bankruptcy judge urges deal to end clash over power contracts

PG&E : Bankruptcy Judge Urges Deal to End Clash Over Power Contracts

Wallstreet Journal via Mkt Screener

(not paying those idiots anymoar)

A bankruptcy judge Wednesday urged PG&E Corp. and renewable energy suppliers to try to reach a deal to avert a jurisdictional clash with federal authorities over up to $42 billion in power-purchase agreements.

"I'm not looking for good guys and bad guys. I'm looking for a solution, " said Judge Dennis Montali at a hearing in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in San Francisco. If PG&E can't come to terms with its suppliers by May 3, he said, he will issue a decision.

The dispute centers on the prospect that California's largest utility will try to unwind some or all of the $42 billion worth of contracts with suppliers, many of which are renewable energy producers. PG&E wants the bankruptcy judge to have sole power to rule whether it can cut off contracts. Suppliers want the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to weigh in on the decision, making it tougher for PG&E to simply walk away.

The utility filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection at the end of January facing an estimated $30 billion in damages from years of wildfires linked to its equipment.

Filing for bankruptcy allows PG&E to negotiate its fire-damage claims, and gives it a possible way out of so-called excess power contracts. Those deals require the utility to buy electricity from producers of wind or solar energy and other suppliers.

Uncertainty over whether PG&E will keep their contracts or reject them in bankruptcy has dented the prospects of green-energy producers that count the California utility as a big customer. Some have been downgraded to junk status, even though PG&E is still adhering to its contracts.

The energy industry is keeping a close eye on the fight, which is viewed as a test of the power of FERC, the federal agency that regulates interstate power markets.

NextEra Energy Partners LP, which owns a number of wind and solar plants that sell power to PG&E, turned to FERC as the utility prepared to file for bankruptcy protection, urging the regulator to stake out its authority and preserve the stability of the California energy markets. Days before PG&E filed its chapter 11 papers, FERC asserted that it has concurrent jurisdiction with the bankruptcy court over the power contracts.

FERC's language bothered the bankruptcy judge, who commented on Wednesday that the agency may have overreached its authority. Whatever he decides, Judge Montali said, he is ready to move the question up quickly to the next level of review, which is likely a federal appeals court in California or in Washington, D.C.

PG&E's lawyers contend that only the bankruptcy judge can rule on whether it can break its power purchase contracts. If the utility persuades Judge Montali to allow it out of a contract, FERC has no authority to force PG&E to continue buying power, PG&E lawyer Theodore Tsekerides said.

"Nobody else can tell me what to do but you," Mr. Tsekerides told Judge Montali at Wednesday's arguments.

FERC and the companies on the other side of PG&E's power purchase contracts disagreed. A ruling from the bankruptcy judge doesn't extinguish the agency's authority to protect the public interest, said FERC lawyer Shane Huang.

If PG&E's decision to end a contract threatens to upset the power market, FERC must have the authority to act, he said. Before its obligations are erased, PG&E should be required to get permission from the bankruptcy judge and from its regulator, Mr. Huang argued.

Both the bankruptcy judge and the regulator have roles to play in PG&E's future, said NextEra lawyer David Stern. "You do your job, FERC does its job," Mr. Stern told Judge Montali.

Schumer: Barr must retract 'spying' shocker

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer accused Attorney General William Barr of spreading conspiracy theories on Wednesday after the Justice Department chief said he thinks "spying did occur" on President Trump's 2016 campaign.

In a terse tweet, Schumer demanded a retraction from Barr. "AG Barr admitted he had no evidence to support his claim that spying on the Trump campaign 'did occur.' AG Barr must retract his statement immediately or produce specific evidence to back it up. Perpetuating conspiracy theories is beneath the office of the Attorney General," Schumer, D-N.Y., said.

Hours earlier Barr made the stunning declaration to a Senate budget panel.

"I think spying did occur. But the question is whether it was predicated — adequately predicated," Barr testified. "I'm not suggesting it wasn't adequately predicated, but I need to explore that. I think it's my obligation. Congress is usually very concerned about intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies staying in their proper lane." "I think spying on a political campaign is a big deal. It's a big deal," Barr added, an apparent reference to GOP allegations that the FBI misled the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to monitor former Trump 2016 campaign foreign policy adviser Carter Page.

However, later in the hearing, Barr clarified that he hasn't proven there was any wrongdoing. “I am not saying that improper surveillance occurred, I'm saying that I am concerned about it and looking into it, that's all," he said. Still, Barr's "spying" bombshell has riled Democrats.

At a Democratic retreat, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Barr went "off the rails."

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler suggested he was misled and demanded answers. "These comments directly contradict what DOJ previously told us. I’ve asked DOJ to brief us immediately. In the meantime, the AG still owes us the full Mueller report. #ReleaseTheReport," Nadler, D-N.Y., tweeted.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said such a comment would be pleasing to Trump. "The casual suggestion by the nation’s top law enforcement officer of 'spying' may please Donald Trump, who rails against a 'deep state coup,' but it strikes another destructive blow to our democratic institutions. The hardworking men and women at the DOJ and FBI deserve better," Schiff tweeted.

Barr, who is putting a team together to look into surveillance abuse, also said he expects to release a redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller's final report "hopefully next week." The Judiciary Committee, ruled by Democrats, voted last week in favor of subpoenaing Barr to turn over the entire Mueller report. However,Nadler saidon Tuesday that his panel, which has oversight over DOJ, will not actually issue a subpoena for Mueller's full report until they see the redacted version provided by Barr.

Notable: Republican Rep. Vern Buchanan and Massachusetts Democrat Seth Moulton on Wednesday introduced the Fentanyl Sanctions Act.

WASHINGTON—Florida Republican Rep. Vern Buchanan and Massachusetts Democrat Seth Moulton on Wednesday introduced the Fentanyl Sanctions Act, a bipartisan measure intended “to force China to stem the flow of deadly, synthetic opioids being trafficked into the United States.”

Fentanyl, which is similar chemically to heroin but 50 times more powerful, is the main substance the measure targets, because it was associated with more than 28,000 opioid overdose deaths in 2017, 40 percent of the 70,000 plus overdose deaths recorded that year.

An estimated 80 percent of the drug that comes into the United States originates from China, according to a joint statement issued by Buchanan and Moulton. Chinese officials agreed last week to clamp down on fentanyl trafficking.

While China is the major source of fentanyl trafficking into the United States, significant amounts also come from Mexico and other countries.

“Fentanyl and other opioids have ravaged Florida communities and torn apart many families and lives,” Buchanan said. “While I welcome China’s announcement that it will ban all forms of fentanyl, we must ensure that their words are followed through with meaningful action.

Provisions of the measure include:

Impose sanctions on China-based drug manufacturers that knowingly send synthetic opioids to drug traffickers and other criminal operations.

Authorize $600 million in funding for law enforcement to combat the trafficking of opioids across the globe.

Create a new federal commission to combat synthetic opioid trafficking that will include the Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and the secretaries of homeland security, defense, treasury, and state.

Trump Admin Calls on UN to Revoke Credentials of Maduro’s Regime

The Trump administration on April 10 called on the United Nations to revoke the U.N. credentials of illegitimate dictator Nicolás Maduro’s socialist regime and to instead recognize the internationally recognized interim president Juan Guaidó.

Vice President Mike Pence, as part of the administration’s latest effort to pressure the embattled dictator to step down, said that they had drafted a U.N. resolution and called on all states to support it.

“The time has come for the United Nations to recognize interim president Juan Guaidó as the legitimate president of Venezuela and seat his representative in this body,” Pence told the U.N. Security Council.

Previously, in February, both the United States and Russia failed in rival bids to get the Security Council to adopt resolutions on Venezuela.

The United States was the first country to recognize Guaidó as Venezuela’s rightful leader. Guaidó also has the support of more than 50 nations internationally.

When asked if the United States thought it had enough backing to oust Maduro’s government at the United Nations, Pence said: “I think the momentum is on the side of freedom.”

Russia and China have for years fed billions of dollars to Maduro’s regime through loans and energy deals.

Russian U.N. Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia accused the United States of provoking an artificial crisis to oust Maduro and replace him “with their own pawn,” actions he described as a “lawless, thuggish violation of international law.”

“We call on the United States to once again recognize that the Venezuelan people and other peoples have the right to determine their own future,” Nebenzia said. “If you want to make America great again, and we are all sincerely interested in seeing that, stop interfering in the affairs of other states.”

Like Russia, Maduro has also dismissed Guaidó as a “U.S. puppet.”

The United States had called the meeting to discuss the humanitarian situation. U.N. aid chief Mark Lowcock told the council that there is a “very real humanitarian problem” in Venezuela.

Ex-FBI Lawyer James Baker Refuses to Answer Rep. Meadows When Asked if Multiple Trump Associates Were Targeted With FISA Warrants

Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA) on Wednesday released transcript of former FBI counsel James Baker’s second interview with the House Judiciary Committee.

James Baker gave two explosive testimonies to the House Judiciary Committee in October of 2018 in an unclassified setting.

According to the newly released transcript, James Baker refused to answer when Congressman Mark Meadows asked if multiple Trump associates (besides Carter Page) were spied on with FISA warrants.

It is believed that Obama’s corrupt DOJ and FBI obtained FISA warrants on General Mike Flynn, Paul Manafort and George Papadopoulos, however it has not been confirmed.

Baker’s refusal to answer Meadows suggests that Obama’s FBI and DOJ indeed spied on Flynn and others with FISA warrants.

Meadows wanted to know how many FISA warrants related to Russia collusion that James Baker reviewed as it related to the probable cause portion.

“How many FISA applications did you review as it relates to Russia?” Meadows asked Baker.

FBI lawyers interjected and wouldn’t let Baker answer, claiming the information is “sensitive” and “almost always classified.”

Meadows continued to push back.

“Well, there was a text message in a nonclassified setting that would indicate that there were multiple FISA applications, as many as 17 different FISA applications that may or may not have related to this particular subject,” Meadows said, adding, “Would it surprise you to know that there were — or is there more FISA applications beyond just the Carter Page FISA application that we’ve been discussing as it relates to this investigation?”

An FBI lawyer interjected and would not let James Baker answer Meadows’s questions on the FISA applications.

Meadows continued, “There’s multiple texts. There’s multiple texts that would indicate Lisa Page — it’s in a text message between Lisa Page and Andy McCabe that says, you know, your particular — I can read it. Would you like me to read it?”

Meadows was referring to a text exchange between Lisa Page and Andrew McCabe that took place on October 19th, 2016, just two days before the first FISA warrant was opened on Carter Page.

“There will be nine packages for you to sign, with the possibility of eight additional if the NSLB signs off on them. They’ll probably won’t be WUDsd (ph) by 7:30. The FISA team will be delivering them at 7.” Lisa Page said in a text to McCabe.

“Were there multiple FISA applications?” Meadows asked after reading Lisa Page’s October 2016 text to McCabe.

“Were there other individuals connected directly or indirectly with the Trump campaign that had a FISA warrant placed on them for the purpose of surveilling conversations and collecting data other than Carter Page that you’re aware of?” Meadows asked again.

“I’m not going to answer it right now,” Baker responded.

An FBI lawyer [name redacted] objected to Meadows’s question and promised to follow up with the Republican lawmaker perhaps in a classified setting.

Obama’s corrupt FBI and DOJ obtained one FISA warrant and three subsequent renewals (4 total) on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page.

The final FISA warrant was signed in June of 2017 by DAG Rod Rosenstein and Andrew McCabe AFTER Mueller was appointed special counsel to investigate Trump-Russia collusion.

Baker’s refusal to answer Meadows strongly suggests others in Trump’s orbit were also spied on with FISA warrants — this is one of the biggest scandals in US history and all roads lead back to Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Notable: >>6125526 Breakdown of POTUS' growing approval rating with the American people.

Back of envelope progress report:

A record 137.5 million Americans voted in the 2016 presidential election.

A record (for midterms) 113 million Americans voted in the 2018 midterms.

Let’s just use a round number somewhere in the middle, and assume that there are 125 million likely voters in the US.

Let’s just set aside voter/election fraud, illegals voting etc, for now…

Each 1% that is added to Trump’s approval rating roughly translates to approximately 1.25 MILLION American voters who have changed their opinion and have started to view POTUS more favorably.

This was likely the public realization of the Mueller investigation findings, combined with the red-pilling efforts to which Q (and anons) have been pursuing.

President Trump had a monthly job approval rating from Rasmussen of 48 percent in March and is now at 53%. A 5% increase translates 6.25 MILLION million. These are just the likely voters in the US. Think about the numbers WW.

These numbers always fluctuate and are subject to a margin of error. But it’s likely this number will only go up as we go on from here, and as more information trickles out.

People who have been red-pilled, and who are starting to understand what the Fake News Media is all about, will not likely be fooled again.

Great progress POTUS, Q and Anons!!!!

AUG 2015

Even before American intelligence agencies began investigating the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, European intelligence agencies were sounding the alarm. According to The Guardian, European intelligence officials first intercepted communications between Trump associates and Russian operatives as early as August 2015. The intercepts were reportedly so concerning that the head of the British intelligence service Robert Hannigan passed the intelligence directly to CIA chief John Brennan.

Over the next several months, intelligence agencies in several countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany, Estonia, Poland, and Australia, passed information to the U.S. regarding interactions between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives.

Rogers likely informs President-elect Trump of the prior surveillance activity by the FBI and DOJ, including the likelihood that all of Trump Tower’s email and phone communication were reviewed within the FISA-702 abuse.

Spanish Police Probe Extortion Scheme Involving Surveillance on Assange

UPDATED: Suspects are being investigated in Spain for having tried to extort €3 million from WikiLeaks in exchange for a huge cache of documents and surveillance videos of Assange inside Ecuador’s London embassy, including with his doctors and lawyers.

A Spanish judge is investigating an alleged extortion scheme in which suspects in Madrid offered video and audio surveillance to the editor of WikiLeaks in exchange for €3 million, WikiLeaks said on Wednesday.

The surveillance was taken over the past year inside the Ecuador embassy in London, where WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has legally been granted political asylum since 2012, said Kristinn Hrafnsson, the WikiLeaks editor, at a press conference in the British capital. Included in the “trove” of material was a copy of a legal document regarding Assange’s defense strategy that was briefly left behind in a conference room in the embassy, Hrafnsson said.

“It is a grave and serious concern when legal meetings are being spied upon and legal documents are stolen,” he said. “That is something that not even prisoners have to endure.”

Assange was also filmed being examined by his doctor in the embassy, Hrafnsson said. “Nobody expected that this was recorded and stored and found its way to some dubious individuals in Spain,” he said.

Minnesota authorities arrest 58 people, rescue 28 victims in child sex and trafficking sting

ST. PAUL — Nearly five dozen people are facing possible felony charges following their arrests for attempting to solicit children for sex or for trafficking victims, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA).

Investigators with the BCA-led Human Trafficking Investigators Task Force conducted an operation April 4-8 in several Twin Cities communities. During the operation, suspects chatted on several social media platforms with undercover agents and investigators who posed as minors or as sex buyers. Investigators arrested the suspects as they arrived at an arranged meeting place for an encounter.

Suspects were booked into the Hennepin, Anoka or Ramsey county jails and their cases will be submitted for charging. Most are from the greater Twin Cities area.

47 people were booked on probable cause felony solicitation of a minor or solicitation of prostitution under 16 years of age.

11 people were booked on probable cause sex trafficking, promotion of prostitution.

28 victims were rescued from trafficking situations, including one minor.

“This operation is an example of the aggressive steps necessary to stop traffickers and johns who buy and sell people for sex in our communities,” said BCA Superintendent Drew Evans. “We can’t let this crime continue, and we must work together to stop it.”

The operation was carried out by personnel from 33 criminal justice agencies and was part of the ongoing work of the Human Trafficking Investigators Task Force. The Task Force is led by the BCA and includes investigators from the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Buffalo police departments, the Anoka and Hennepin County sheriff’s offices, Homeland Security Investigations, and the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office.

Many Task Force affiliate agencies lent resources to this particular effort, including the Bemidji, Blaine, Brooklyn Park, Cambridge, Coon Rapids, Duluth, Howard Lake, Maplewood, Owatonna, Rochester, Thief River Falls and Upper Sioux police departments, and the Crow Wing, Kanabec and Pope County sheriff’s offices.

Additional agencies provided expertise and resources including the Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina, Oakdale, Plymouth, St. Cloud and Woodbury police departments, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, the Hennepin and Washington County attorney’s offices and the BCA-led Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

Notable: US lawmakers grill bank CEOs for the first time since financial crisis

U.S. lawmakers grill bank CEOs for the first time since financial crisis

(Reuters) - Chief executives of some of the largest U.S. banks appeared before Congress on Wednesday, giving lawmakers their first opportunity to grill the lenders since the 2007-2009 financial crisis.

Democratic lawmakers focused many of their questions on who the banks were doing business with, probing for answers about their Russian accounts and financing of gun manufacturers.

The tone, questions and players were distinctly different from a decade ago, when lawmakers focused on banks’ ability to safeguard the financial system and avoid future bailouts. Among the CEOs on the panel, JPMorgan Chase & Co’s Jamie Dimon was the only one who headed his bank before the financial crisis.

Still, bank executives got a few chances to flag hoped-for talking points like their positive contribution to the economy when Republican lawmakers quizzed them on more systemic issues.

Along with JPMorgan’s Dimon, Bank of America Corp’s Brian Moynihan, Citigroup Inc’s Mike Corbat, Goldman Sachs Group Inc’s David Solomon and Morgan Stanley’s James Gorman all faced off against the House Financial Services Committee.

Ronald O’Hanley, CEO of State Street Corp, and Charles Scharf, CEO of Bank of New York Mellon Corp, the country’s two largest custody banks, also appeared.

The hearing was led by Democratic Representative Maxine Waters and staffed with some high-profile freshman representatives like progressives including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

(progressives….OMG)

Waters’ first question, directed at three of the bank CEOs, was whether they had found suspicious activity within their banks related to Russian accounts.

Citi’s Corbat declined to comment, citing an ongoing investigation into the matter. The Bank of America and Morgan Stanley CEOs said they had conducted internal investigations and did not find any suspicious activity.

Questions largely focused less on systemic risks and more on social issues like how banks are addressing wealth inequality by adjusting overdraft fees in checking accounts, and whether banks are extending loans to businesses that need them.

Democratic Representative Carolyn Maloney pressed JPMorgan’s Dimon to commit to a policy that would reduce the bank’s financing of gun makers. Citi and Bank of America last year said they would no longer provide certain banking services to gun manufacturers.

Some Republican lawmakers criticized such policies on Wednesday, with Representative Bill Posey cautioning banks against withholding financing from legal business and Representative Sean Duffy accusing Bank of America of denying Americans their Second Amendment rights.

The bank executives’ prepared remarks focused on arguing that Wall Street has reformed the practices that fueled the crisis and stressing the contribution banks make to the broader economy.

Dimon said that JPMorgan “will never lose sight of what we learned Still, the bank has taken steps that went a long way to preventing another crisis, Dimon argued.

(fuck you too buddy!)

Since the crisis, the country’s largest banks have added more than $800 billion in capital to bolster the financial system.

In the months leading up to the hearing, the banks also made a string of announcements to show how they are helping customers and communities.

Bank of America said on Tuesday it would raise its minimum hourly wage to $20 from $15 by 2021.

Last month, JPMorgan said it would no longer finance the private prison industry and would invest $350 million in job training programs.

Goldman Sachs has publicly set targets for hiring women and minority groups, a move Citigroup also made late last year.

Wells Fargo & Co was not present at the hearing since former CEO Tim Sloan resigned abruptly last month, two weeks after appearing before the same committee.

Emergency Response Drill Scheduled For Wednesday At LAX

About 200 emergency responders will participate in a full-scale aircraft accident simulation drill Wednesday morning at Los Angeles International Airport.

The three-hour, unrehearsed exercise, which is due to begin at 8 a.m. and will include about 300 observers, is designed to test the airport’s readiness for a disaster on the airfield, officials said.

The Federal Aviation Administration requires the drill to be conducted at least once every three years, according to Los Angeles World Airports, which operates LAX.

Multiple organizations from the public and private sector will be involved. Among these are LAWA, the Los Angeles Fire Department, American Red Cross, Los Angeles County Emergency Medical Services Department and coroner’s office, the FAA, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Kaiser Permanente, Southwest Airlines, the FBI and Transportation Security Administration.

About 150 volunteers will play the role of accident victims, many of them in special effects make-up to simulate injuries.

The exercise is scheduled to conclude by noon.

FOMC Minutes Show "Patient" Majority Expect Rates On Hold, Concern Over Flat Yield Curve

Alternative title: "FOMC Minutes show market is now in charge"

Since the uber-dovish flip-flop of The Fed on March 20th, the long-end of the US Treasury curve has outperformed all other asset classes

The dollar and gold are also higher along with The Dow as we note that the yield curve flattened dramatically before rebounding back to almost unchanged.

And mirroring the yield curve, the market's expectations for Fed rate-changes in 2019 plunged (dovishly right after the March FOMC) only to rebound hawkishly in recent weeks.

Recall the FOMC held rates steady, forecast no additional hikes this year and announced plans to end balance sheet shrinkage in September, and as Bloomberg reports, that led markets to price in interest rate cuts by next January. The minutes could push back against those expectations for actual cuts as the committee lays out conditions needed for a cut – or a hike.

Bloomberg Chief U.S. Economist Carl Riccadonna warned that "an important focal point of the minutes will be to determine the extent to which Fed officials expect the sources of recent economic weakness to be transitory. This, in turn, will signal how they might respond to signs of firming hiring, consumption and output ahead of the Fed’s next rate decision on May 1."

All eyes will be on any signal of rate-change direction (after Powell said in the last press conference, he didn’t know whether the central bank’s next move would be to raise or lower its short-term benchmark rate), as well as what to expect when the balance sheet run-off ends.

The Minutes highlighted a sheepishly dovish FOMC:

*FED MAJORITY SAW RISKS WARRANTING RATES ON HOLD THROUGH 2019

*SOME FED OFFICIALS SAW FURTHER MODEST INCREASE LATER THIS YEAR

*FED OFFICIALS SAW `SIGNIFICANT UNCERTAINTIES' AROUND OUTLOOK

*SEVERAL FED OFFICIALS CONCERNED YIELD CURVE WAS QUITE FLAT

*SEVERAL FED OFFICIALS POINTED TO INCREASED DEBT, LEVERAGE

On the yield curve:

"Several participants expressed concern that the yield curve for Treasury securities was now quite flat and noted that historical evidence suggested that an inverted yield curve could portend economic weakness;"

On what "patient" means:

"Several participants observed that the characterization of the Committee’s approach to monetary policy as ‘patient’ would need to be reviewed regularly as the economic outlook and uncertainties surrounding the outlook evolve."

"A couple of participants noted that the ‘patient’ characterization should not be seen as limiting the Committee’s options for making policy adjustments when they are deemed appropriate."

Finally, on the bright side, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said he was right to recommend Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve chairman despite President Donald Trump’s frequent criticism of the central bank leader.

“I don’t feel like I picked the wrong person,” Mnuchin said Wednesday in an interview on CNBC.

“But I respect the president’s views and his views of the economy, where he’s had tremendous insight.”

This information is critical to the mission to exposing the corruption posing in MAGA Co.

On November 5, 2018, Anonymous published some documents that it purports are from a private organization of intelligence officials, journalists and others seeking to counter "Russian propaganda and "fake news". In my research I found this to be a credible, existing organization. The leaked documents show a structure of chapters throughout the world, provides contact information for chapter heads, and the chapters include one in the United States.

RT (expectedly) picked up this story and put their own spin on it. In my search to confirm the validity of the documents, I found many smaller "verified" journos scolding RT for THEIR propaganda, and confirming that these documents were in fact leaked from within the organization. (Ref: Alistair Coleman, from BBC: https://twitter.com/alistaircoleman/status/1066473195463688192 ).

Here is the link to story from RT, along with link to documents: c

Anonymous Document Dump: https://www.cyberguerrilla.org/blog/operation-integrity-initiative-british-informational-war-against-all/

The organization, Integrity Initiative: https://www.integrityinitiative.net/

Looking at the website, you immediately perceive their "Anti-Trump" bent- it's remarkably apparent on just their home page. These sorts of things are expected, and their internal documents hedge on almost unbelievable, but given the affirmation of BBC, I am nearly certain they are, in fact, legitimate documents. Before I get to that- for example, one of the documents leaked, entitled "Integrity Initiative Guide to Countering Russian Disinformation May 2018" uses Trumps true statements about attendance size at his inauguration, and subsequently Sean Spicer's press conference statements about attendance, as an example of "Fake news" and "propaganda". This was a MAJOR red flag, but as I read on I realized that this is actually legitimate: https://www.scribd.com/document/392195802/The-Integrity-Initiative-Guide-to-Countering-Russian-Disinformation-May-2018-v1 (See embedded image below)

There is much to be concerned about inside of these documents, however, here is what raised my eyebrows and I feel it deserves further digging. Again, I am only privy to publicly available information. However, be that as it may, this is on its face extremely concerning.

There were a set of minutes made available in the leak- it appears this was a working document from within the organization, whereby people in charge of different divisions would update this doc and it would be passed around as sort of a set of a status guide. It is entitled "Top 3 Deliverables (for FCO)" LINK: https://www.pdf-archive.com/2018/11/02/top-3-deliverables-for-fco/top-3-deliverables-for-fco.pdf

They call each group in each Nation State a "cluster" The US cluster progress is the first bullet point under number "3" in the document. I have provided a print screen below. I have highlighted the area I am focused on for you below, although as you can see it also appears there is FBI involvement here (See link for "FBI InfraGard, a partnering of the FBI and private sector: https://www.fbi.gov/about/partnerships/infragard)

There is no way for me to determine if this contact exists. and what the extent of the contact is. There is no way for me to determine if Katharine Gorka has spoken with these folks, or if she has what she said. There is no way to know if she is aware of their role and the nature of their work– however, I found this to be extremely important, and worthy of a look by people who ARE familiar with those details.

(Reuters) - U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao defended the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision to not immediately ground the Boeing 737 MAX fleet after a second deadly crash in March of an airplane in Ethiopia.

Chao also said the FAA will “thoroughly review” Boeing’s final software upgrade package and training revisions once the airplane manufacturer submits it. “The department’s goal is to ensure public trust in aviation safety and preserve the preeminence of the United States as the gold standard in aviation safety,” Chao told a U.S. House panel.

THERE IS A PLAN TO EXPOSE THIS!! This charade was allowed so the left and media would end up hanging themselves with their own ropes. And I think I found the document and the manner of disclosure that is going to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. HER HOME WAS SOLD IN 2017!!!

It was sent on Feb 19, 2019, the EXACT DAY RBG returned to the bench. And it is making the request that the 2018 financial reports be available online so no one could make accusations that they were altered. And also to be in PDF form so its completely legible.

“As of today, Fix the Court and the Free Law Project have each requested the 2018 disclosure reports from all U.S. Supreme Court justices, circuit court judges and district court judges.”

"happy to upload them all to our websites; however, since we believe in the importance of primary sources – and we would not want detractors to accuse us of altering documents – we think it would be preferable for all reports to be uploaded to a judiciary website"

Khashoggi's children deny considering settlement over murder

RIYADH (Reuters) - The children of murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi denied on Wednesday discussing any sort of settlement over his killing by Saudi agents after a report of compensation awards. “Currently the trial is taking place and no settlement has been discussed or is being discussed,” said the statement, published on Twitter by Khashoggi’s elder son Salah.

The Washington Post, where Khashoggi was a columnist, reported last week his children were given million-dollar houses and monthly five-figure payments as compensation. But it said that was separate from any potential “blood money” payment that could be negotiated after the murder trial under the Saudi justice system. While ruling out a “settlement,” the family statement did not, however, explicitly deny receiving compensation. In fact it added: “Acts of wisdom and generosity arise from high morals and humanity and are not an admission of guilt or error. We were raised to be grateful for favors and not reject them.” Family members could not be immediately reached for further comment.

Eleven suspects are on trial for last year’s murder, which the CIA and some Western governments believe was ordered by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The authorities deny he had any role in or knowledge of the killing, which sparked an international outcry and limited sanctions by Western allies. Reuters reported last month that a royal adviser fired and sanctioned by Washington over the murder is not among those on trial at secretive hearings in Riyadh.

Justice Dept. Watchdog’s Review of Russia Inquiry Is Nearly Done, Barr Says

By Adam Goldman and Charlie Savage

April 9, 2019

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department’s internal watchdog intends to complete by May or June his investigation into aspects of the Russia inquiry, including whether law enforcement officials abused their powers in surveilling a former Trump campaign aide, Attorney General William P. Barr told lawmakers on Tuesday.

The department’s inspector general, Michael E. Horowitz, has been examining how law enforcement officials obtained a warrant in October 2016 to wiretap Carter Page, a former foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign with links to Russia. Mr. Horowitz’s investigators have also asked witnesses about informants that the F.B.I. turned to in the early stages of the investigation, according to people familiar with his inquiry.

“The office of the inspector general has a pending investigation of the FISA process in the Russia investigation,” Mr. Barr said in testimony before a House appropriations subcommittee, using shorthand for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. “I expect that will be complete in probably May or June, I am told. So hopefully we’ll have some answers from Inspector General Horowitz on the issue of the FISA warrants.”

A spokesman for Mr. Horowitz declined to comment on the timing of the expected report. But the inspector general has previously confirmed that he was looking into the early stages of the Russia inquiry, including wiretap applications, informants and whether any political bias against Mr. Trump influenced investigative decisions.

Mr. Horowitz’s findings could once again upend the Justice Department and F.B.I., which have been at the center of a political firestorm since the 2016 presidential election over their handling of separate investigations into both Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and ties between Russia and the Trump campaign. The highly anticipated results of the Russia inquiry are due to be made public “within a week,” Mr. Barr said on Tuesday.

In the Russia investigation, Republicans have accused law enforcement officials of improperly obtaining the Page warrant because the application relied in part on Democratic-funded opposition research compiled into a dossier by Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer who was also an F.B.I. informant.

At issue is whether the F.B.I. and Justice Department made any misrepresentations to the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court when seeking the warrant, or if they should have flagged any concerns about the credibility of the information in the application during renewals. If the inspector general finds fault with the F.B.I., it could help validate Republican accusations that the Russia investigation was politically motivated.

Mr. Trump’s allies have sought to reduce the inquiry to the problematic Steele dossier and to portray the Page wiretap application as its central feature. However, the bureau opened the counterintelligence investigation into Russia’s election meddling — including scrutinizing links to the Trump campaign — based on other information, and without the dossier.

And the Page wiretap was only a small part of the broader Trump-Russia investigation: The inquiry involved more than 2,800 subpoenas, nearly 500 search warrants and about 500 witness interviews, Mr. Barr wrote in a letter to Congress describing the conclusions of the coming report by Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel who took over the investigation in May 2017.

Law enforcement officials were also granted three renewals of the wiretap from the surveillance court; Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general and a Trump administration appointee, signed the last renewal application, which was granted in June 2017.

As part of his investigation, Mr. Horowitz is scrutinizing the F.B.I.’s relationship with Mr. Steele, who provided the politically charged information to the agents trying to determine whether any of Mr. Trump’s associates were secretly working with the Russian government’s campaign to meddle in the 2016 election.

There have been a few questions regarding the change of BO on the board so lets address a few of those before this bullshit gets out of hand.

>BO has decided to resign his position due to pressing IRL needs.

This is true, on Friday he resigned his position and up until tonight I thought we were in a keyholder situation keeping the seat warm until he came back. He tells me having the weight off his shoulders has been amazing for his IRL life and hes getting back to it. He has said he will not be returning as BO.

>BO will not be replaced, the keys are held by the BV's and all board related decisions will be made as a group.

This is mostly true I was petitioned by one especially zealous BV to share the keys with someone on the BV team following that post. 8bit has advised me not to and so until Q posts and either directs us to a new board or tells me I'm a shit BO, I'll be providing oversight for the decisions made by BV team as BO.

>BV team will continue to run the board and maintain things the way they are.

Yep same Q time same Q board

Notable: The Trump War Room hits back at HRC re MAGA

The Trump War Room flipped Hillary Clinton’s argument Tuesday that conflated the president’s slogan, “Make American Great Again,” with “white nationalism” by compiling a number of moments when her husband said the same thing.

President Donald Trump’s War Room team urged the former secretary of state to examine some of the comments her husband has made throughout the years when shared similar ideas about making America great again.

Clinton had insisted in a tweet, “The white nationalists certainly think MAGA is a white nationalist slogan.”

But in a rebuttal tweet including a video compilation of a number of times former President Bill Clinton uses the term, “Make America great again,” the Official Trump War Room suggested, “Hey, [Hillary Clinton], maybe you should talk to Bill?”

In videos clips captured from throughout the former president’s political life, Clinton can be heard saying, “I believe that together, we can make America great again,” and, “I want to attack these problems and make America great again.” Clinton also said he wants “to secure a better future for your children and grandchildren and to make America great again.”

Vatican tries 'retreat diplomacy' as South Sudan peace deal falters

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The Vatican brought together South Sudanese leaders for 24 hours of prayer and preaching on Wednesday, a last ditch attempt to heal bitter divisions a month before the war-ravaged nation is due to set up a unity government. The retreat, which a Vatican statement called “both ecumenical and diplomatic”, will end on Thursday with an address to the leaders by Pope Francis, who has expressed a desire to visit South Sudan. The leaders are all Christians, including President Salva Kiir, his former deputy turned rebel leader Riek Machar, and three other vice presidents.

Machar’s presence was in doubt until the last minute because aides said that Sudan, which is a guarantor to the September peace deal, has been restricting his movements in capital, Khartoum. Sudan, which is predominantly Muslim, and South Sudan, predominately Christian, fought each other for decades before the south became independent in 2011. Oil-rich South Sudan plunged into civil war in two years later after Kiir, a Dinka, fired Machar, from the Nuer ethnic group, from the vice presidency.

Brutal fighting broke out, characterized by extreme sexual violence, the use of child soldiers and attacks on civilians along ethnic faultlines. About 400,000 people died and more than a third of the country’s 12 million people were uprooted, sparking Africa’s worst refugee crisis since the 1994 Rwandan genocide.

Machar landed in Rome about an hour before the retreat was due to start in the Pope’s Vatican guest house. The leaders will live there and eat together during the retreat. Also attending are the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, the spiritual leader of the worldwide Anglican communion; members of the South Sudan Council of Churches; and other African Catholic and Presbyterian Church leaders. Welby had proposed the retreat to the pope.

A Vatican statement said the retreat would offer the leaders “a propitious occasion for reflection and prayer, as well as an occasion for encounter and reconciliation”. An African Jesuit, Father Agbonkhianmeghe Orobator, will preach. The two sides signed a power-sharing deal in September calling on the main rival factions to assemble, screen and train their respective forces to create a national army before the formation of a unity government. That has not happened. Instead, the government has dismissed U.N. investigations into war crimes and gang rape and asked for $285 million in funding to implement the deal. Last month, Brussels-based think-tank the International Crisis Group warned the deal risks total collapse before May 12, when the leaders are due to start sharing power.

ROME (AP) — The Vatican has for the first time opened its own investigation into the case of Emanuela Orlandi, a 15-year-old Vatican citizen who disappeared in the summer of 1983.

The Orlandi family's lawyer, Laura Sgrò, confirmed the probe on Wednesday. She told The Associated Press that "the Secretariat of State has authorized the opening of an investigation into a grave in the Teutonic Cemetery inside the Vatican," after an anonymous tipster indicated that investigators should look where a statue of an angel in the cemetery is pointing.
